In April 2025 Kristin Burnett and Shannon Stettner called on “others who seek to move the history and ongoing impact of Residentials Schools and Indian Hospitals beyond the narrow scope allowed by the Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement.” This series brings together works that:

- Explore the role of historical inquiry in responding to the “minimization, distortion, and denial” of settler colonialism.
